An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

A team of Moscow schoolchildren was among the 20 finalists of the first Open All-Russian Technology Olympiad in Robotics. From Code to TakeoffThe final round will take place in the capital from December 16 to 22. This was reported by Anastasia Rakova, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Social Development.

"The Open All-Russian Technology Olympiad in Robotics, 'From Code to Takeoff,' is one of the year's key events in robotics. For many schoolchildren, it's not just a competition, but the first step toward their future profession. Five thousand Moscow students participated in the qualifying round, with 325 high school students advancing to the finals. The final round will bring together 400 students in grades 9-11 from across the country who plan to pursue careers in IT and engineering. The finals will be held in Moscow from December 16th to 22nd. A separate final round will be held in the spring for younger students. Olympiad winners will receive preferential admissions to Russia's top technical universities, ranging from admission without exams or credit for an additional test to a score of 100 on the Unified State Exam," explained Anastasia Rakova.

The qualifying round of the Olympiad was held online. Students were asked to solve a problem in a simulator: on a virtual track for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), they had to find the optimal route and read data from markers. In the "Mobile Robots" section, students worked with a specialized Robot Operating System. They mastered the basic principles of navigation, control, and data exchange between nodes. Participants had to program the robot to plot a route in a given space, configure the localization system, and ensure correct movement along the intended trajectory.

"I participated in a UAV simulator track. The solution required running two programs: one simulating the drone's operating system, and the other simulating the input and output of where the drone was flying and what it was seeing. The map showed two warehouse locations and five unloading points. I had to deliver packages from the warehouses to the designated locations using an optimal route and LED indicators. It was very interesting to choose the best route, see how the calculated time matched the simulator's actual time, and spot any errors. I hadn't worked with UAVs before this Olympiad, so this experience was unique," shared Dmitry Firsov, an 11th-grader at School No. 1329.

The final stage of the Olympiad will take place at the Federal Center for Unmanned Aircraft Systems. The opening ceremony will take place on December 16. The following day, participants will take quizzes. From December 18 to 20, students will complete practical round tasks in two areas: UAVs and mobile robotics.

In addition to Moscow high school students, students from 23 regions of Russia will take part in the competition.

During the practical round, they will configure drones and develop algorithms for autonomous flight, including obstacle avoidance and tag recognition. Participants will also program mobile robots that will perform an autonomous mission at the testing ground: basic navigation, obstacle avoidance, object recognition, and optimal route planning in changing conditions. The finalists will also face electronics-related challenges, which will depend on their chosen field.

150 drones, 32 tables with mobile robotics equipment, 16 drone nets, and 400 computers will be prepared for Olympiad participants.

In addition to the competition, the finalists will enjoy an educational, cultural, and entertainment program. A technological show of engineering achievements will be held at the Rudnevo Industrial Park, featuring robotic dogs and a humanoid robot. The awards ceremony will take place on December 22.

The Open All-Russian Technology Olympiad in Robotics, "From Code to Takeoff," is part of the Moscow School Olympiad in Robotics, which has been held since 2015. Winners of the competition receive preferential admissions privileges to leading Russian technical universities, including Bauman Moscow State Technical University, Lomonosov Moscow State University, and the National Research University Higher School of Economics. Winners will be able to enroll without taking exams or additional tests, or they can receive 100 points on the specialized Unified State Exam.

The Olympiad was organized by the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation, the Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media of the Russian Federation, and Department of Education and Science of the City of MoscowDetailed information about the "From Code to Takeoff" Olympiad is published onwebsite.

Moscow schoolchildren regularly win robotics competitions. In 2025, the Moscow team received 47 winner's and runner-up certificates at the All-Russian School Olympiad finals. Muscovites also won the Russian Robotics Olympiad last season. They created transport robots for industrial fishing, port work, and rescue operations in the northern seas. Moscow schoolchildren demonstrated the highest results among all participants, with over 50 students receiving awards.

Ensuring high-quality preparation of Moscow schoolchildren for the Olympiads is in line with the objectives of the “All the Best for Children” national project Youth and ChildrenMore information about Russia's national projects and the capital's contribution can be found atspecial page.

This is the first innovative educational space for the practical training of qualified personnel tailored to the economic needs of Moscow, Russia's largest educational and industrial center. The educational center's capacity allows it to train over three thousand students per year.

This fall, the city's educational infrastructure was expanded with a unique facility where adults and college students can master modern professions and gain in-demand skills. This is a practical training center. Professions of the Future at Technopolis Moscow in Pechatniki.

"We've been implementing the TechnoInternship program in the SEZ for four years now, offering young professionals the opportunity to gain practical experience and relevant skills at the capital's leading industrial enterprises. We've signed over 30 agreements with leading higher and secondary educational institutions. Around 65 Technopolis companies are helping students master complex professional competencies. Since 2022, over 1,600 students have participated in the project," emphasized Sergei Sobyanin.

The implementation of the capital's development strategy will ensure the leading role of industry in Moscow's economy, create thousands of promising jobs, and will be a significant contribution to addressing the challenges of Russia's technological sovereignty and leadership.

Participants of Moscow Longevity see work as an opportunity for self-development

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Moscow Government – Moscow Government –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The "Moscow Longevity" project, in collaboration with the NAFI analytical center, conducted a study on the role of professional development in the lives of people of "silver" age. It was based on the results of a survey involving more than two thousand city residents over 55.

"One of the goals of the Moscow Longevity project is to foster a new lifestyle that prioritizes social inclusion among the older generation. Together with NAFI, we examined the potential of middle-aged Muscovites in the labor market and once again confirmed that continuous education and development remain crucial for them. Muscovites are willing to learn new things professionally, even after age 70. Furthermore, respondents who have participated in the Moscow Longevity project demonstrate a greater willingness to work in positions that involve sharing their knowledge and experience with younger employees. The Moscow Longevity project supports this trend by offering participants a variety of educational course formats—from improving their skills with modern technology to professional retraining. Previously, in collaboration with the Rabota.ru service, we confirmed that 85 percent of surveyed Russian employers are interested in job seekers aged 55 and older," said the Deputy Head of the Moscow Department of Labor and Social Protection.

Vladimir Filippov.

The study found that Moscow Longevity participants view work not only as a source of income but also as a resource for personal development. This view was shared by 48 percent of respondents who participated in the project and 31 percent of those who did not join.

A key difference also emerges in motivation. For participants in the "Moscow Longevity" project, the social aspects of work and self-development were more important: the desire to be useful (20 percent versus 11 percent), the desire to stay active (31 percent versus 20 percent), and the opportunity to travel (26 percent versus 16 percent).

The study confirms that older Muscovites view retraining as a way to continue their professional careers. Moreover, their willingness to acquire additional skills persists even after age 70—almost half of respondents in this age group are open to retraining to develop their competencies. Only 21 percent of respondents completely rule out this possibility. Forty-four percent of respondents consider changing careers after reaching age 75.

The Moscow Longevity project helps students acquire skills in various fields and offers a variety of educational programs, from basic computer literacy and foreign language skills to comprehensive professional retraining. A key part of the project's educational programs is the Silver University, created by Moscow City Pedagogical University and Synergy University. It allows older Muscovites to earn a professional retraining diploma and master new specialties, including information technology, pedagogy, tour guidance, and much more.

Furthermore, the study showed that Moscow Longevity participants are more flexible in their professional development. They are more actively considering mentoring and consulting opportunities. For example, 29 percent of respondents who joined the project are willing to become mentors for younger colleagues (compared to 19 percent of those not participating), and 34 percent would become consultants (compared to 26 percent of those not participating).

Moscow Longevity participants also demonstrate greater openness in their relationships with younger colleagues. They are more likely to value them as a source of new ideas (41 percent versus 33 percent) and note their high energy (37 percent versus 28 percent). This loyalty extends to interactions with younger managers. Sixty-four percent of Moscow Longevity participants feel comfortable subordinate to a younger manager. Among those not participating in the project, 56 percent of respondents shared this opinion.

To support intergenerational connections, Moscow Longevity is implementing a project "Dialogue of Generations: Hearing Each Other"Developed in collaboration with the Moscow Institute of Psychoanalysis, it helps older adults learn to resolve disputes and communicate in a way that their children and grandchildren will listen to and understand.

The NAFI study confirmed that Moscow Longevity participants are generally more open to new experiences: 82 percent of respondents admitted to enjoying new experiences. They get these from trips, events, and training. Among respondents not participating in the project, this response was less common—71 percent agreed.

"The results of our joint study showed that participation in social activity programs broadens the horizons of opportunities for older people—from digital confidence to a willingness to engage in intergenerational collaboration. This means that working with the 55-year-old population should focus not on limitations, but on potential: engagement, a desire to learn, and the ability to be carriers of valuable knowledge. For employers and city projects, this opens the door to creating mixed teams, developing mentoring, and flexible retraining programs that capitalize on the strengths of this population—their resilience, experience, and high social motivation," emphasized Guzeliya Imaeva, CEO of the NAFI Analytical Center.

You can join the Moscow Longevity project online at mos.ru portal, as well as in person at any Moscow Longevity Center or at My Documents offices.
